Graduation Gala
The gala is a yearly event meant to showcase graduates from the previous academic year. Graduates at all levels of completion are honored by family, friends and community members on their sacrifice and commitment toward education. The event is also used to encourage others to seek education as a pillar for success. MKIDA invites speakers who promote education and inspire the community to aspire for higher academic goals.
